ACC weekend rewind: Week 1 |
From Heather Dinich of ESPN:
The good: Clemson’s offense against Auburn. The Tigers were able to win without suspended superstar
Sammy Watkins The stat: Andre Ellington ran for 231 yards in Clemson's win against Auburn. According to ESPN’s Stats & Info department, Ellington is only the third ACC player since 2004 with multiple 200-yard rushing games. Seven ACC teams don't even have multiple 200-yard rushing games by an individual in that period.
Here’s a look back at Week 1 in the ACC:
